For Tyler’s sake, hopefully he got Stedman Bailey’s number after the test to try and take his mind off things. They won’t test him again for a couple of months, right? Do they test in AAA ball? It’s hard not to feel bad for the tester, though. Had to be an awkward conversation. “Um, Mr. Lyons…”

(Yes, they test in AAA ball, BTW. We know.)

T-Wood after 17-5 win in STL: “I instantly came in here and gave Samardzija a hug and said sorry.” Cubs have 15 runs in 8 Samardzija starts.
